I think we get to 12, but I see the Chargers @ 11. I see Buffalo at 11, 12 if we lose to them.

We do need to start putting this thing together!

Depends what your definition of fine is.

The bye appears to be off the table.

I think as things presently are we are good enough to be a WC team.

Patrick is good enough to will us into the SB ala Rodgers at that point, but it is far more likely if we get the bye.

I need to see the defense jump 10 spots in the rankings before I feel "fine." The offense cannot overcome this defense at this point.

The biggest problem this team has is Chris Jones and Frank Clark are not contributing like they did the last two seasons.

Frank is done physically, I believe. His decline started last year. Now his body is running on fumes.

The move outside has fucked up Jones. He is not nearly as dominant out there. He flashes, but there is no consistency.

When you take away that much contribution on the d-line there is a huge trickle down effect, and Niemann and Bolton are huge liabilities at LB. So it is what it is. I do like the back end of the D a lot, but they cannot hold up with what amounts to 4 positions in the front seven being out of whack.

If we had Kareem and Sammy maybe we're 3-0 but we don't so we're not.

Gotta get the D to just below average for this team to have a shot.

Even though he was hurt a lot, Sammy added a dimension to our offense that we don't have, a solid # 2.

Need to fix the turnover problem on offense.

This team responds best when their back is to the wall. May be a blessing in disguise after all the nonsense 17-0 talk. I like when mahomes gets fired up.

Our OL is still brand new. Our defense ALWAYS gets better as the season progresses. We gotta hope Noah gray comes along and I really hope the Chiefs start working in Noah gray. And guess what, we're not gonna have many windy days like today. Not to mention we've played three excellent teams so far.

And I doubt veach is done. He knows we need a WR2. There's plenty of season left. We'll be fine.

Defense gave up 70 points in the first four games last year.

The "defense always starts slow!!!" excuse doesn't fly. They are just bad.

I think Veach saw the issue with Clark coming and tried to fix it by moving Jones, and signing Reed, and neither of those moves have paid off so far.
[Reply]

Agree because the defense is bad. But am I the only one thinking our offense is plodding and lacks any tempo? We need to go more up tempo maybe no huddle and don't let the defense get set so it can free up Hill more
[Reply]

At least they've started finally using Fortson near the end zone. And of course it paid off immediately.

The offense won’t keep turning it over like this and I really like how they are starting to run to football effectively. Protection is a work in progress. There was a time or two where PM needed to step up and to the left and he went to his old habit of retreating to his right. As the OL and PM jell we will be super tough with our new found running attack.
[Reply]

13-4, maybe even 14-3.
[Reply]

But you're ignoring the game we won, was by the turnover...
[Reply]

yes , the chiefs will be fine

we will win the division

CHIEFS WILL
[Reply]

Last week I though we would still win the one seed by two games. I guess maybe we still will by one game. But I think what I’m starting to be most concerned about is that our passing game doesn’t seem to be getting many big gains or being consistent from the pocket. Everything seems to only come from Mahomes running around which just isn’t reliable for consistent drives. I’m not sure if the issue is receivers, Mahomes, plays, blocking or what but it just doesn’t look right.
